Were you in the puddle jumper? If so, your username is a bit of an over reach, lol
Yes I was and I also hold my class 1 and have driven them but this job is on my doorstep 
âŚalways a positive. Especially if you can earn a similar amount.
I only do agency, as you may know, so itâs probably a bit different for me, but when I accept a class two or c1 job, even though itâs on Class one rate, I always feel hard done by.
I like the comfort, and [entirely delusional, I know] kudos of driving a class one.

Only dangerous to the halfwit behind who is driving too close and not paying attention. If you donât drive up the chuff of the vehicle in front then it isnât an issue. If you hit the back end of one that does then that was your fault.
Possibly 44 ton pushing maybe 7.5 ton into the back of the truck heâs following even with his brakes on â â ? You do the maths so called self styled driving god !!!
